Next day was nothing special, i followed the same old routine. Woke up at 5:30, got fresh, had breakfast and we both, My mum and I left the house at 6. We locked the house because the two maids we had hired worked from 5pm to 9pm. The dinner was cooked by the maids. My mum and I were only two people in our house. As you know my sister was married and my parents got divorced when i was two years old. I don't have much memories with my father. If i hadn't sneaked and seen my old album, i'd probably not be able to recognise my dad.

Cara and i were sitting in her cabin and finishing some work, when she got a phone call. She ended the call with 'Sure, i'll take care of it.' She turned to me and announced 'Since It's been more than 2 months and Jeff couldn't solve the case, i have been appointed as a new incharge of the case' She continued 'I don't know if i'll be able to solve this case...'. It was true. Never had there been such a case where it had taken so long to catch a thief. Whoever the person was, one thing was sure that he wasn't an ordinary thief. '...did you hear what i just said?' Cara snapped at me. 'Sorry' i mumbled 'what were you saying?'

She huffed and said 'I've been assigned the duty to solve the case which jeff unfortunately couldn't complete but i had to submit my leave application today to attend my cousin's wedding next week. I don't think i'll be able to attend it. Sir will obviously think i'm backing off or something' she completed with a disappointed look on her face. 'Hey, don't be sad Cara, just give it a try i'm sure they'll understand. Besides they'll reappoint Jeff to handle the case so i don't think there will be major complications related to the case.' I assured her. 'C'mon where's the charming smile...i wanna see those dimples... c'mon smile my little chipmunk' i said while hugging her. 'Thanks Harr i don't know what i'd without you big brother' she said smiling.

After sometime she came back smiling and waved an envelope in front of my face shouting 'I GOT THE LEAVE. I FUCKING GOT THE FUCKING LEAVE. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS. FUCCKKKK...THANKS BROTHER I LOVE YOUUU'.
'First of all stop cursing loud you idiot and secondly i'm soo happy for you.' I said to her smiling back. Cara then said 'And yes, they want to meet you today before your shift completes to explain you about the case. Jeff is super annoyed by the way.'
'Wait, why?' I asked frowning a little
'I don't know while i was coming back i saw him standing near the fountain. So i just went to say hi. He started complaining about the lack of supportive team and partial heads and just cursed and stormed off' i saw her with a confused look but she just shrugged and said 'Anyways i've to complete some paper work till tomorrow and submit it... so i guess i'll see afterwards And yes please don't forget to meet Mr. Cowell. Oresle he's gonna kill me.' And with that she left.
I sighed as i completed my work and went to meet our head Mr. Cowell. Don't get me wrong but i think cases of thievery, snatchers, etc. should be appointed to low level or middle level managers. I mean we should get more important matters. I'm not saying that these cases doesn't matter but ....forget it, there is no way in hell i am going to argue with Simon Cowell.

I drove to the main office and headed to Simon's office. I knocked twice and entered his cabin after hearing 'come in'. 'Ahh Good afternoon Mr. Styles. Please, sit'. 'Good afternoon Sir. I got a notice...'. 'Yes Mr. Styles i asked Miss Delevingne to inform you.' He interrupted me and contiued 'I assume you already know what the case is but let me explain you the details. Okay so there is a thief in loose. According to the people the thief hasn't harm anyone yet but we can't take any risk. It's been two weeks since we sent our team to lookout but unfortunately we haven't got any piece of information. So we've decided to replace Mr. Azzoff and appoint you as the new head'. I was about to interject when he motioned me to stay silent and said 'i know you might be thinking why you're getting such cases when your main area is murderers and kidnappers. Trust me i'm doing this because we've got no other option. Mr Azzoff couldn't even find a single clue to lead the case so we couldn't waste more time on him. We don't want people to question our sincerity. We want them to have their full confidence on us. Now as you know Miss Delevingne's priority is her cousin's wedding over the safety of the public so we can't trust her at all. That means we are left with you only. You've to do this and you've only one week to find some important and relevant clue. I hope you won't let me down.' He said while stretching his hand.  I smiled confidently and shook his hand 'yes sir'. And with that i left his office.

After my shift was over i went back home and took a nap. I woke at 7:30 pm when my alarm went off signalling it was time for dinner. I clumsily made my way to the dinner table. My mom and i discussed over few things and before we knew it was 9pm so we dumped our plates in the sink so the maids could wash it. I headed towards my room and saw my bed made. I laid down and imagined my loubear sitting beside me and i narrated my entire day. As much clichè it might sound, trust me it really felt good. 'Goodnight babycakes, time to sleep' and with that i drifted into the world of fantasy.
